Street Art bar De Bajes now open!

Posted on February 18, 2017

De Bajes is curated by Vroom & Varossieau, the Amsterdam gallery specialized in urban contemporary and street art. When serial entrepreneur Sven Toering (who is also the owner of FLinders and Wolter Wolthers in Groningen) was finishing his studies at Vroom & Varossieau in 2011. He came up with the idea to create an absolutely unmissable Street Art bar and restaurant in Amsterdam. It took a few years and 4 other bars, but at the end of 2016 Olivier Varossieau got the call..."We got walls!"

We couldn’t be more excited to work with Sven on this great project and are very proud to bring you de Bajes. Europe’s best Street Art bar. Featuring exhibition spaces, numerous works by the most exciting artists and, of course, larger than life murals by the creme de la creme of the international urban contemporary art world. Some of the world’s most renowned street artists have turned the imposing walls into their canvasses: D*Face, EINE, Fanakapan, Jaune, Handiedan, Hugo Kaagman, Laser 3.14, Bortusk Leer, the London Police, Ox Alien, Søren Solkær en Luiz Risi were all temporarily incarcerated at De Bajes.

Of course the art isn’t the only of top notch quality at de Bajes, the atmosphere and food and drink are definitely up to par. Especially with the kitchen being in the hands of Niels van Halen, former chef of the michelin star restaurant “De Hoefslag”.
